I watched a YouTube video several years ago that discussed how Mr. Bean live streams and compilations have flooded YouTube despite the original series not being that long. I can't find the video because the search results are indeed flooded with these

I listened to an interview recently, I believe on BBC, where the interviewee said the biggest issue with peace talks is that the international community isn't able to trust Putin to keep his word on whatever is agreed upon. I hadn't considered that, but it makes a lot of sense and I'm not sure how that could change

A few months ago I installed Proton Drive on my new PC. It started having issues so I sent it back in for repair. I uninstalled Proton Drive then deleted my files for privacy. Last week I installed Proton Drive again. To my surprise, it scrambled all of my files locally and remote. All my root folders were deleted and my root is now filled with "Delete conflict" files and folders. I reported this to Proton immediately. After giving them my logs and details support told me... - This is expected: "Proton Drive is designed to synchronize ALL changes, even after long periods of not syncing" - No rollback is possible: "Please note that we are unable to revert this behavior. You will have to restore the files manually" - They plan to address this: "Regardless, we will absolutely be making improvements to avoid such problems in the future." For me I have about 100 files to address, which is manageable, but for others I'm sure this would be a showstopper. The delete conflicts don't have version history either, so I have to figure out how to weave everything back together.

That's a fair stance. But practically I don't know what "Trumpism" will look like if he continues to not be in office. From my perspective it's been a bit frozen in time since losing in 2020. Until the campaign ratcheted up, I didn't know what he was saying or his position on current political affairs. So time and relevancy seems to be working against him, at least his direct influence. And if he dies I think there will be a lot of in-fighting when it comes to "What Would Trump Do" and will probably morph into something new altogether

IMO most pro-Haley support was inherently anti-Trump. That's essentially what her campaign boiled down to, and I suspect she sincerely thought he will lose. If so, she'll be well-positioned for another run, assuming two Trump losses will be seen as a death nail to his support (which might not occur, who knows, he could very well run again in delusion)

I typically don't have issues on this front, but I found this difficult to read. I think because of the text contrast maybe. If you can, maybe spend some time tweaking the styling, adding a light theme, and/or running it through some accessibility tools.

The way you're presenting this seems pretty fishy. There's no way to guarantee an 18% return without an equal dose of risk. Interest on savings accounts are guaranteed, up until they change the rate. So that's apples to oranges.

Disputing a CVE is no straightforward task either, as a GitHub security team member explained. It requires a project maintainer to chase the CVE Numbering Authorities (CNA) that had originally issued the CVE.
CNAs have conventionally comprised NIST's NVD and MITRE. Over the past few years, technology companies and security vendors joined the list and are also able to issue CVEs at will.
These seems like an issue worth addressing. If it's too easy to report and too difficult to dispute, I could see the CVE ecosystem be weaponized and turned into a political tool.

Software updates have, more than once, changed my settings for things like autopilot without warning, and I've only discovered it when driving and turning autopilot on.
I feel like this point can't be overstated enough. When I need to go somewhere, I shouldn't need to reorient myself because the car receives software updates all the time. A device that's constantly changing is inherently unreliable, even if technically it's improving over time.

I found this historical context particularly interesting.
And Ronald Reagan was somebody who did everything he could to curry the favor of evangelicals and white Catholics and the Moral Majority in the election against Jimmy Carter. Ronald Reagan delivered on some of those promises, but he ended up frustrating some of his religious right supporters. He didn't go all the way. Well, we arrived a decade or so later to George W. Bush. George W. Bush was a self-identified evangelical who had been saved by his faith in Jesus Christ. And he certainly did a lot to promote the interests of evangelicals and other conservative Christians in the country.
But George W. Bush - despite what he did in Iraq and Afghanistan, when he left office, it felt like the itch had not been scratched, that there was still something wrong with the country because even though we'd had an evangelical president for eight years, the country continued to be less religious, less Christian. It continued to get more pluralistic, more diverse, racially and ethnically. And then all of a sudden, it was Barack Obama. And Barack Obama was, like, made in a lab to scare white Christian nationalists. So Barack Obama is president, and then we get Obergefell, and gay marriage is legalized.
By the time Donald Trump arrives, this group of Christian nationalist voters, whether they be evangelical, whether they be conservative Catholics or Latter Day Saints, are in the mood not for somebody who simply identifies with them and their politics, someone like Ted Cruz or Mike Huckabee, they're in the mood for somebody who will act as the brutalizing barbarian needed to take the country back. If you want to colonize the Earth for God, it's not enough to have a testimony that says, Jesus saved me from my sins or from my alcoholism. What you need is a bully, somebody who will put in line all those folks that you think are ruining your country and causing it to descend into the pits of hell.
You don't just need somebody who's going to go to church on Sunday and talk a good talk. You need somebody who will destroy in order to rebuild. So Donald Trump, yeah, doesn't go to church a lot. Donald Trump, been married a couple times. But you know what he promises in ways that no one in our lifetimes has? He promises to punish those who have caused this country to go the wrong way. And so eight years later, we have a base that is more rabid to make him their barbarian king than ever before.

Hi, I'm wanting to set up app locking on my Pixel 4a with only a physical device to unlock them. Preferably something keychain-able. Here are some options I've looked into and considering: - Bluetooth device with... - separate Android profile + Smart Lock - [AppLock - Fingerprint app](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sp.protector.free&hl=en) - this is the only app of this type I found that supports Bluetooth - NFC tag with... - some app locker app, though I haven't been able to find one that supports NFC - Tasker ([related how-to](https://archive.ph/bNM5U)) Here are some options I've looked into and not considering: - USB-C security key - would prefer a wireless option to not wear out the phone's port - [Unpluq](https://www.unpluq.com/product/unpluq-tag-premium/) - I don't like subscriptions - Smart Lock doesn't support NFC anymore ([request to bring it back](https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/67187451)) Notes: - I actually have an old Google Bluetooth Titan Security Key, but it doesn't seem to work with Smart Lock. It doesn't let me add it as a trusted device despite being successfully paired. I think it might operate on Bluetooth Low Energy. - Seems like NFC might be better than Bluetooth for my purposes since I wouldn't have to worry about battery life. - I don't know what Bluetooth device might work best for this purpose. I believe products like Tile also work on Bluetooth Low Energy. - Any recommendations on NFC tags? Seems like Etsy might be good to get something somewhat customizable and better looking than the blank chips I've seen listed online. Happy to hear anything you have to share on this topic!
